Ephesus VIP Private Cruise Tour: Skip Lines, Bestseller!

This was the best excursion of our trip. Neslihan did an excellent job in showing us the area and discussing the history of each area. Ephesus wa just amazing and to have Neslihan there to explain it was great. Having a private tour was the best because you could do and go at your own pace. I highly recommend this private excursion.

This was a great experience and I highly recommend booking. This was a private guided trip that picked us up right outside the doors of our cruise ship port. Aysa was our fabulous tour guide who let us personalize our day based off what was important to us. We received great historical information about Kusadasi from Aysa and she was so nice and considerate about us enjoying our time. I would definitely book this trip again with her if I ever visited the port again.

The guide was excellent and very knowledgeable about Ephesus, highly recommend, and the value was the best of our entire trip. Lunch at a small farm was very good and authentic.

This port was disappointing. We booked a private tour through Viator, and unfortunately, most of the stops felt very commercialized, focused on selling overpriced leather, carpets, and souvenirs. It seemed more like a shopping route than a cultural experience. The visit to the Virgin Mary site was the only real highlight and a truly meaningful stop. I understand tourism supports the local economy, but it felt like we were treated more as dollar signs than guests. I wouldn’t choose this tour again.

Was an amazing day our guide was great. Very Knowledgeable of everything and we were fully educated. We had a great meal and they do take you to see how Turkish rugs are made and try to sale you one at the end. So just be prepared for that. The tour was great and the food was good.

Our trip was scheduled for 8 a.m., and as usual, we arrived 10 minutes early. To my surprise, my name was already on the board and our guide, Tuna, was waiting for us. He was well prepared, very friendly, and immediately directed us to our driver. We were taken to Ephesus in a clean Mercedes Vito van while Tuna explained the itinerary. We asked if we could adjust the route a little, and with a smile, he agreed and encouraged us to share what we really wanted to see. About 20 minutes later, we arrived at Ephesus — and were absolutely stunned by the first view. Throughout the visit, Tuna pointed out fascinating details and tirelessly guided us for about two hours. After each stop, we were picked up within minutes and never once worried about getting back to our cruise ship on time. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Having our own guide, skipping some of the queues, and being so well looked after made the day unforgettable. We can 100% recommend this tour and especially Tuna — he made Ephesus come alive!

It was an amazing private tour. Ayse was our tour guide and was phenomenal. I would highly recommend this tour to get a taste of the culture and history. The history knowledge of Ayse was amazing and she explained everything in detail.

Zeynep was our guide in Turkey and provided an excellent tour. The vehicle provided was very clean and comfortable. We will certainly use her again when we return.

We had an amazing day with our guide Omer and driver Etham. We packed a lot into our day. Omer was very knowledgeable about the sites that we visited and we feel like we got a great deal on the trip. I highly recommend this company to tour Ephesus. You will not regret it!

Awesome tour! Very knowledgeable and helpful guide. Everything went smoothly and we were able to see so many things. We had a wonderful lunch that was very delicious with great service.
